Question

a circuit contains four capacitors connected in parallel. The values of the capacitors are 0.1 microfarads, 0.6 microfarads 1.0 microfarads and 0.05 microfarads. what is the total capacitance of this circuit. A.0.46 Microfarads B. 1.75Microfarads C.1.25Microfarads D0.42Microfarads

Answer 1

Answer:

B.  1.75 microfarads

Explanation:

When capacitors are connected in parallel, the total capacitance is equivalent to the sum of each individual capacitor's capacitance.

With this in mind, we have the values, 0.1, 0.6, 1.0, and 0.05, all microfarads.  So simply, we need to sum these values.

0.1 + 0.6 + 1.0 + 0.05

= 0.7 + 1.0 + 0.05

= 1.7 + 0.05

= 1.75

So the total capacitance for this circuit would be 1.75 microfarads.
